iCal insists on printing monthly calendars (month view) that are too
wide for the letter size paper used. Each week is about 1/16 inch too
wide which means that Sunday and Saturday get lopped off a bit and and
so do any events at the edge of those two days. On rare occasions it

A vendor sends me these .ods files and I cannot locate a program to open
them. I can unzip the file but then I have a bunch of xml files and
other stuff that I cannot do anything with. There is one "thumbnail"
file of the pic that I need to see, but it's too small to read the ...

I want to copy a DVD disc that I've made in iDVD but I'd like to rename
the disc itself. (Change it from xxx2005 to xxx2006). This is the name
which comes up when the disc is inserted in the computer.
I don't want to change the content. I no longer have the original IDVD

I have over 3,800 named albums, each with the best cover art I
could find (no easy task!)
  Now I see that iTunes 7 places my cover art in some sort of
repository folder with bizarre index numbers.

Any suggestions for a good screen-movie capture app? I know that there's
some expensive professional stuff for Windows. How does Snapz Pro do? I
tried Screen Movie Recorder, and it takes a lot of RAM, and seems to
crash if you get too big a file.

iTunes sees about 50% of the mp3's I've ripped.  I've used Windows
Media Player to play the music in the past and I used redchair software
to copy the tracks to my iPod.
I just recieved a new video iPod, so I'd like to switch to iTunes for

I am a Windows XP user now so am used to the standard Office Suite
from microsoft.  Well I'm now buying my first Mac. I know there is a
office 2004 for the mac and since I have a lot of files for Office I
know this is a good option.  What is the most popular word processing

I have a problem printing months from iCal. Sometimes it goes fine, and
there is no problem. It is set for landscape. However, most of the time
it sets up with each month too wide (each day is about 1/16" too wide)
and the ends of the calendar get cut off on both sides. How can you ...

I've tried iTunes several times over a period of years. It always leaves
me wanting to do nasty things to whoever designed it. To me, the perfect
music player app was "SoundAppPPC". It didn't want to make play lists,
it didn't care where your music files were, and it understood ...

Silly-assed because I should be able to figure this out by searching
apple.com, but no, they've made it damn' near impossible to actually
find an answer to a question as simple as:
What version of USB is in a 1.25ghz dual-processor "mirrored" G4?

I just got into the garageband on my mac iBook G4. I am using the

I am trying to convert my Address Book groups to Google Groups, and
can't figure out how to get the data in the following format:

That's it. I have used the Address Book Exporter to get the above info

I attempted to create a disk image of my new Warcraft III play cd using
Disk Utility, and finally figured out how to do it. I think.
Anyway the only way I could get it to complete a disk image was to
choose Master Disk in the disk image menu.
